after two decidedly academic posts (and an unexcused absence from blogging… forgive me), here’s a break.
interviews with students over this last week have reminded me of how important a good name is for being remembered… or forgotten. as an experiment i searched google images for pictures of people with the name “david matthews” (avid BoSci readers might know why). interestingly, virtually all of the “david matthews” listed on google images are musicians, criminals, or academicians. as far as i can tell, this isn’t just an artifact of online content, as searches for other names will demonstrate. below are some colorful examples.
of course:
a couple of first-degree murderers:
another musician, whose pic reminds me a bit too much of david lynch:
some scientists and profs:
and finally, a ton more musicians… perhaps with a few repeats. also note, neither of the boners claim the moniker… their producer does, though, and let them get away with this album cover.
